    Trusses are commonly used to support long span roofs and floors in multistory buildings. They are able to resist gravity loads through a system of chords and diagonal members that transmit forces without buckling. Parallel chord trusses are often used to support shorter roof trusses. Varying the sloping of the bottom chord can also be an economical design choice. Pratt trusses specifically are frequently employed in buildings with spans ranging from 20 to 100 meters, as they create intermediate points of loading that limit the buckling length of members.
